Speed, driving or simply car games have been with us since the creation of the world. Already in the 70s, with the Pongwe had a classic Atari how was it Nighttime driver and, from that moment on, everything happened non-stop. If you close your eyes and think of a console or computer that you had years ago, surely you can associate each of them with an experience with one of these speed games.
In addition, for certain generations of consoles, having a quick release game was a guarantee of success and crazy sales. And if not, ask Namco and their Ridge Runner. Or SEGA and its sagas Virtua Racing, Daytona United States o SEGA Rally. Or more recently at Grand Tourism Yes Forza (Horizon). Now, since we're talking about PCs, what kind of stuff do we have that we can get our hands on with minimal warranties on our computers?
A speed game that smells like Tokyo
On PC you have to be honest and whatever the ForzaIt is true that we have certain names that have been with us for years but who limit their influence to very specific user niches. This is the case of Asto Corsawhich is a simulator from head to toe, and one of the good ones, or the case of the great BeamNG player which is above all a “car simulator with dynamic soft body physics where you can do almost anything”.
So yes or yes aquariums we needed something more verbeneromore arcade, more Japanese on our computer, especially after the virtual disappearance of sagas like Ridge Runner this kept us alive when it came to driving games. And that's why we now have this Tokyo Xtreme Racerwhich has a release date for 2025 and just showed off some first images gameplay of what we can expect from him.
This game is an heir to those versions from the 90s, which are the ones that marked many of you in the last days of the Super Nintendo and the beginnings of the PSX. This is why in this case Tokyo Xtreme Racer We can drive cars like Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec II, Toyota Supra RZ, Mazda RX-7 Type RZ, Toyota GR86 RZ, Toyota Levin GT-APEX, Mazda3 Fastback 20S Retro Sport, Suzuki Swift Sport, the Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT-APEX 3-door and the Subaru Impreza WRX STI Spec C.
A saga with pedigree on consoles
We must remember that this game belongs to a saga that has been with us for three decades and which stopped being released in 2007 on Xbox 360, so its return marks a stage that we will be able to enjoy in 2025. All that remains is that it is for everything it promises in The leaked images meet expectations. This is why we are already preparing a flyer to experience the simulation with more realism.
